Shares of 4d Pharma PLC (LON: DDDD) today fell 7.32% due to the lack of positive fundamental drivers to boost the biotech company’s share price as the UK, European and global stocks markets sold off.
The firm’s shares have sold off this week reversing most of the gains made last week after announcing that it was merging with Longevity Acquisition Corporation (NASDAQ: LOAC) (“Longevity”), a NASDAQ-listed Special Purpose Acquisition Company (“SPAC”), to gain access to US markets.
The deal is worth up to $37.6 million to 4D pharma and will see the firm launch a new NASDAQ-listed American Depositary Share (ADS) programme under the ticker symbol ‘LBPS’ and be immediately admitted to trading on NASDAQ upon completion.
